Health & Safety Standards

At MIWEC, safety isn’t just a policy — it’s a project-wide commitment. Every job begins with a site-specific risk assessment, continues with daily toolbox briefings, and closes with compliance documentation for final reporting.

Whether operating cranes, dismantling industrial machinery, performing selective demolition, or working in occupied environments, our field teams follow OSHA, EPA, and client-specific standards without compromise.

Our project managers and safety officers actively monitor field activity to prevent incidents, minimize liability, and maintain our industry-leading EMR.

Daily Pre-Task Safety Meetings
Each shift begins with a structured toolbox talk to review potential hazards, weather conditions, equipment usage, and safety controls.

Site-Specific Safety Plans (SSSP)
Customized safety plans are prepared for every jobsite — integrating scope, staffing, environmental risks, and client expectations.

Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) Compliance
MIWEC enforces full LOTO protocols when handling electrical disconnects, rigging prep, and mechanical isolation tasks.

All workers are equipped with and required to wear job-appropriate PPE — including hard hats, eye protection, gloves, steel-toe boots, and high-visibility vests.
